I'm not usually a fan of the cereals that contain small marshmallows, I think we all know what the other popular brand is. So, when I opened the box to these I was a little disappointed, I thought I wouldn't like them at all.
After trying this brand though, I've quite changed my mind. The cereal pieces are a little bit sweet, not over the top, just enough to not be dry and bland. They almost feel and taste like they have a light glaze over them, and they start crunchy for the entire bowl, unlike other brands I've tried.
The marshmallows themselves aren't hard, overly sweet, and there's not too few of them. I'm a strange person, so I like a certain ratio with cereals like this, where I get enough marshmallows per bite without being overwhelmed by them, and that expectation was met, as I was still getting equally balanced spoonfuls my last few bites.
I've also found that it's been so long since I bought a Post cereal, I forgot how amazing their bags are. We live in an area notorious for ant activity, so I'm always worried about leaving anything sweet out that might attract them. This bag makes that so simple to deal with with its little zip locking mechanism in one corner. So there's no tearing a flimsy plastic bag trying to open it, no struggling to get just enough opened and then close it securely, you don't have to deal with a bulky box, and it makes storage so much easier. Not to mention getting more product overall than a boxes cereal would provide. Plus, to beat it all, Post has a Love It Or It's Free promise, where if you are dissatisfied with your product, they reimburse you, which I think is super cool, not all that many places do that anymore.
Overall, I'm actually very impressed with these, and excited to grab some other Post flavors to buy when I'm at the store, as I've just kind of neglected them for a good while, with no really good excuse as to why. I see there's quite a few I haven't tried, as well.
